Very nice although the staff in the museum itself seemed bothered and disinterested with questions. The gift shop staff on the other hand were incredibly nice and informative. More

So interesting to see the home of the Brontes, the place where they wrote and to see their belongings. More

I've been here several times and love it. I'm interested in English Literature and so find this place fascinating. It's a little expensive and doesn't take too long to go round but definitely something to see. Haworth as a village is fabulous. I love all the little shops down the hill. It's definitely a full day out. More

This really is a fascinating place, the Parsonage where the Bronte's lived is full of interesting displays about their lives and work, the room where they have a changing display, is especially good I've seen the display on Branwell Bronte, the Reverend Bronte and now Bronte atefacts it is so interesting and informative. There is a very good shop here... More

The area is largely unspoilt and it does give you the chance to see and walk as the Bronte's would have. The Parsonage itself is small with 10 rooms, but has fascinating objects that are well labelled. This continues in a bigger exhibition room that is attached. The exhibition includes some of Charlottes letters during the period when Anne &... More

This is an excellent site to visit. Lots of manuscripts, artifacts and exhibitions. The graveyard and church are also worth a visit. Sad that the sisters all died before the age of 30 except Charlotte who was 38. More

We went around the parsonage after going on the Bronte Walk, and it really fleshed out the stories that the guide had told us. If you don't know much about the family it may seem a bit dry and detached, but having just had the various stories told to us, the house seemed full of life. More

Rev Patrick Bronte (nee Brunty) came from Rathfriland, County Down, Northern Ireland. Having been on the heritage trail in County Down, a visit to Haworth proved interesting and informative. We would recommend that Bronte fans consider visiting both to gain a fuller picture of the extremely clever Rev Bronte and his brilliant daughters and unfortunate son. To see the setting... More

I love visiting places like these and the Bronte Parsonage is now one of my favourites. For me, the best part about it is the feeling you get being inside the house where the Bronte family once lived and you can really imagine them being there in the house. There is alot to see, and it is a really interesting... More

Although I'm not knowledgable of the work of the Bronte Sisters I took my wife as she loves their work. I throughly enjoyed the visit. The museum is fantastic with exhibits of everyday items from the Bronte lives. There were many school children there when we went but the tours were staggered so as to not cause any issues. All...
